    the whole biography
    An invigorating fusion of Caribbean-Dutch heritage and old-school house, Shermanology, the brainchild of brother and sister Andy and Dorothy Sherman, presents an infectious world of 90’s nostalgia and funk reinvention. The duo have garnered global support, surpassing 250 million Spotify streams amongst a festival-packed schedule including performances at Kappa Futur Festival, the Martinez Brothers-curated Cuttin Headz, Miami's LaLaLand Festival, UK dance festival Beat-Herder, and Rio's The Town with a massive audience capacity of 100,000. Since their independent release "Boyz N Da Club" was dubbed 'Hottest Record in the World' by Annie Mac on BBC Radio One, Shermanology have seen widely successful releases on esteemed labels Defected, Demand, Cuttin Headz and Hot Creations, as well as collaborations with with FISHER on "It's A Killa" on his Catch & Release label and remixes for house legends Todd Edwards and Tiesto. Shermanology’s most recent collaboration joins forces with legendary 90s R&B group Boyz II Men in a reimagined house rendition of their hit “Motownphilly”, out on Three Six Zero Records, which continues to make its way through A-List radio. Following an electrifying year touring North America and gracing the stages of legendary Elrow events in Ibiza and New York, as well as sharing the spotlight with Jamie Jones and MK in London, Shermanology stands poised to become a global sensation, as Shermanology will be hosting events by acclaimed brands like ABODE, El Row, Paradise, and XXXperience. A family affair teeming with soul, Shermanology consistently pays homage to their global heritage from the likes of Curaçao, Amsterdam, and Ibiza. Shermanology injects a vibrant energy into electronic music that has been notably absent, both on the dancefloors and through the airwaves.
    Their RA profile lists Defected Records, Rawthentic Music, Hot Creations, Cuttin' Headz and 2 more.

    the whole biography
    A prolific artist well-known for his relentless work rate, and six year stint as a DJ on BBC Radio 1Xtra, DJ Q’s speedy, characteristic sound first gained notoriety via his 2007 bassline smash hit ‘U Wot’, but it’s his tireless schedule that’s kept him secure in the minds of the record buying public. To date, DJ Q has over one hundred productions and remixes under his belt, his solo album, ‘Ineffable’, was released on Local Action in 2014, the collaborative TQD album, ‘UKG’, dropped in 2017, and his ‘All Night’ album was released earlier this year. Recent tracks ‘Time To Shine’ and ‘Rock Wit You’ with Jack Junior are the latest additions to what’s become an incredible discography, and heading into summer with a benchmark compilation series to his name, Q’s enthusiasm shows no sign of waning. It’s in the live arena that DJ Q’s technical ability and passion for the music really shines through. In autumn 2017 he launched the live project, ‘All Night’, a show that he toured for 9 days straight (totaling more than 50 hours playing time), and during which he dug deep into his archives, spinning a meld of house, garage, bassline, jungle and more. He has touched music fans globally securing tours in Europe, Asia with vision to add Australia, New Zealand & N. America in 2019.
